So this is the grave of Ugluk Meyer (died 3333 BC), the forefather of the now huge Meyer clan ... or is it? There is also the possibility that a Mr. Meyer has made this grave archeologically accessible. This grave is not as spectacular as the others in the area, but according to a contemporary witness from 1902 it is said to have been the most magnificent grave far and wide. It has probably been partially removed, a bad habit that continued into the 1970s.

The Meyer megalithic tomb dates back to the Neolithic period, approximately 3500–2800 BC.
This tomb clearly demonstrates the extent of the destruction suffered by these tombs.
It was once the largest and most beautiful tomb.
